Once more, "trusted process" depends on the truster, and varies from
person to person. There is no objective standard of "trusted
process"; there are only processes that a given person does or does
not trust, processes that a given person should or should not trust.
Certainly you and I may not trust the Transnational Republic, but we
do *not* have reason to think that nobody should.
